Frank Sinatra Estate

Legendary singer Frank Sinatra called this pad, known as “Twin Palms,” home for nearly a decade, beginning upon its completion in 1947. Designed by iconic architect E. Stewart Williams (his first residential commission!) and featured in the 1950 Joan Crawford movie “The Damned Don’t Cry,” the property is most famous for being the site of what Sinatra’s second wife, Ava Gardner, called “the most spectacular fight of our young married life.” The primary bathroom sink still bears the scars from that row in the form of a large crack (pictured in the gallery below), the result of a champagne bottle the singer threw at Gardner during the melee. Today, the site is utilized as a special events venue/vacation rental and is available for private tours, making it one celebrity home that is fully – and fabulously – accessible to the public!
